So in my day job I do some T-shirt design work. A couple of times I have messed around with some pheasant hunting themed designs. I thought I would share this design I came up with, with you all. If I am breaking any rules by "selling" these shirts on here please let me know. I am using the...

I posted this on some other sites... but I spent enough time on it I thought i would repost it here. I hope the review is useful to any of you contemplating the bird belt. 2 or 3 years ago I was at Cabelas and saw a bird belt. I had not ever seen one before. i took a look at it and thought it...

I am running low on space in my safe. I am not exactly sure what I am making space for, but if I don't make space for it I won't be able to buy it when I find it. Whatever "it" is. Remington 11-48: $350 obo 16 gauge 28" barrel modified choke 6 1/2lbs I have used this gun as a backup gun to my...

I took off Friday and some friends and I went out to celebrate the end of the season. The forecast made me think the whole trip was going to be a disaster. 60 degrees and sunny is what the weatherman was saying. Boy was I wrong. :) We had probably the best 3 day hunt I have ever had. Friday...

A coworker with an older Brittany wanted me to poll the Manhattan area guys on who they use as a vet. So who do you guys use? And why?

I have been looking for a lightweight bird gun for awhile and found one today that fit the bill. I don't really know anything about the gun. I have been trying to research it online but I am not having much luck. Hopefully one of you can give me some info. JP Sauer & Sohn, Suhl. 16 gauge SxS. I...

Only 287 days until opening Day!

I know lots of guys on here shoot cz and are quite fond of them. I am getting tired of dragging a goose gun through the fields (sbe). I was wondering if anyone on here hunted with the upland ultralight? To me it sounds like carrying a 20 gauge (6#)and getting the patterns of a 12.

I usually hunt with a semi auto but I have a browning over under I shoot a little. I have usually used it IC then M. Which I feel is fairly standard practice, theoretically giving you a better chance at a bird farther off with your second shot. I started to wonder how many guys use the same...

I was at Academy sports yesterday and saw this What in the world would be the use for high brass 1 1/4oz 9 shot? If I saw that at some kind of "ammo shop" it wouldn't be so weird. But to sell it at a retail shop like Academy means people are buying it. I just don't know why. Hopefully one of...

A friend of mine called yesterday wondering if I knew any yellow lab breeders around. I don't know any but figured plenty of you would. His father in law is looking for one. His father in law lives in eastern Iowa, so anywhere in the KS , Iowa area would be good. Don't know why but sounds...

Took a buddy of mine out on Wednesday for his third ever bird hunt. I took him once last year and he shot a rooster, but we were unable to recover it. He had similar experience with one quail earlier this year. We ended up hunting some farmsteads, lots of pigweed! He managed to bag his first...

So I do a decent amount of hunting on Public land around the reservoirs in Kansas. Figuring out exactly where is and is not public is always a bit challenging. Opening the Corp maps on my phone or Ipad is always tricky because the 3/4G is usually poor. So today I finally decided to do something...

A different thread on here made me think to ask this question: In the previous thread some have said everyone has accidentally shot a hen. Fortunately for me I am such a poor shot that evenif I did accidentally shoot at a hen chances are it would just keep flying. In my group no one would...

So I left Ox at home this morning and went out to try a new duck pond we got permission on. Unique morning with all the fog. We had some success and good time. We shot some goldeneyes. I am not much of a duck hunter so maybe they are more common in Kansas than I know, but I had never seen one...

I spent the evening getting my gear packed for the weekend. I can't wait for Saturday! Where I hunt it's quite common to get into both pheasant and quail on the same day, plus I hunt some steel only areas. This year I ended up packing 4 different vests. 1 pheasant steel, 1 pheasant lead, 1...
